The Ukrainian Amateur Radio League (in Ukrainian, Всеукраїнська радіоаматорська ліга) is a national union of non-governmental organizations for amateur radio enthusiasts in Ukraine.
The organization uses UARL as its official abbreviation based on the standard abbreviation of the Ukrainian name translated into English.[1] UARL promotes amateur radio in Ukraine by sponsoring amateur radio operating awards, radio contests, and amateur radio direction finding competitions. UARL also represents the interests of amateur radio operators before Ukrainian and international telecommunications regulatory authorities. The association was founded by 13 regional clubs with nearly 1500 members nationally, for which the objective is to preserve the "true ham spirit" and the free exchange of QSL cards.[2] UARL is the national member society representing Ukraine in the European Radio Amateurs' Organization.[3] The group's office is in the village of St. Peter and Paul Borschagivka, St. Cathedral (formerly Lenin).
